Well, the only class I have ever truly hated is my art history class this semester...I'd rather be hit in the head with a brick than go to that class. Frigging fine arts requirement. :(

I actually like the major related classes I've been taking. My plans after graduation are to try to get into SAP consultation (I've got about a year's experience on the SD module).

That's cool. Actually I'm taking AP Art History this year and it's one of my favorite classes.

Right now I cut directors reels and author DVDs for a music video, feature film and commercial production company. Looking to move on soon, though. :)

I honestly don't think I can properly express my hatred for my art history class. It's been bad from day one of the semester when the instructor and I got into a "discussion" about some iron factory bridge. She was claiming that they left the bridge uncovered (no facade to hide the support girders) to display some sort of "structural beauty" and I called B.S. The discussion ended when I asked her when the last time she was in a factory because I spent 4 summers in a steel mill melt shop and never saw any money spent just to cover support structures.
